Matt Henshaw (British musician)

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

Nothing satisfying wp:music. Competition not major. Lacks significant coverage in independent reliable sources. Previously deleted at Matt Henshaw (Articles for deletion/Censored) duffbeerforme (talk) 01:14, 31 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete per WP:MUSIC. Nothing on the UK charts and "high acclaim" is hard to define. --NortyNort (Holla) 09:36, 31 July 2010 (UTC)

 * Don't Delete, it makes no sense to delete an article that will grow as the artist grows. BBC and NME coverage not major?!  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Ilsonowl (talk • contribs) 12:40, 3 August 2010 (UTC)
 * I'm sure every artist out there can grow, doesn't mean they need an article. --NortyNort (Holla) 21:38, 3 August 2010 (UTC)
 * I agree, but this one seems to be doing more currently than most. And I'm sure there are some nice pictures in the public domain. Ilsonowl (talk) 12:42, 4 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Matt Henshaw is sick. Currently working with Skinnyman and Rtillery. Rustyjay (talk) 19:57, 5 August 2010 (UTC)
 * I hope he gets well soon :) Notability is not inherited, especially not from RTillery. duffbeerforme (talk) 12:10, 6 August 2010 (UTC)
 * RTillery = seems to be another UK hip-hop artist given the knife by Wikipedia editors. Shame. Ilsonowl (talk) 13:02, 6 August 2010 (UTC)
 * NME Breakthrough is a comp artists enter and submit their own bio, not exactly independent. duffbeerforme (talk) 12:10, 6 August 2010 (UTC)
 * NME news is independent source. And reliable.  Other Matt Henshaw sources include BBC, Drowned in Sound, The Fly, Sandman and many major and minor independent national press sources. With former band Censored and now as a solo artist. Ilsonowl (talk) 13:02, 6 August 2010 (UTC)

 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.


 * Delete. Matt Henshaw only has 71 unique listeners on Last.fm, which swings it to a delete for me. That's not just a small listenerbase, it's next to non-existent. Esteffect (talk) 01:48, 9 August 2010 (UTC)
